Article Synopsis
- The RNA chaperone Hfq is crucial for various functions in Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae, a porcine pathogen, influencing growth, adherence, stress response, and virulence.
- Wild-type strains showed varied phenotypes compared to hfq mutants, with some strains exhibiting reduced growth and differing responses to stress and virulence depending on their serovar.
- The study finds that while Hfq acts as a global regulator, its effects can vary significantly between serovars, emphasizing the need to examine multiple strains to fully understand global regulator contributions to complex traits.
